Masco outlines strategy and tariff mitigation at Baird Global Industrial Conference
MAS
Share Buyback
M&A
Guidance Update
  • Capital allocation framework prioritizes reinvestment (2–2.5% of net sales), maintaining a BBB credit rating, a 3% dividend payout, and returning cash via buybacks/M&A; available cash for repurchases and acquisitions raised to $500 M.
  • Reconfirmed growth algorithm targeting 3–5% organic growth (premised on 2–4% R&R industry growth), supplemented by bolt-on M&A; new CEO John Nudi fully aligned with strategic priorities.
  • Tariff impact estimated at $150 M in-year and $270 M annualized, with a 10% China IEPA reduction; mitigation through sourcing shifts, cost reductions, and pricing has largely offset 2025 headwinds, aiming for full neutralization in 2026.
  • Margin targets of 20% in plumbing and 19–20% in decorative architectural products reaffirmed; margins rose from 15.6% (2022) to 17.5% (2024), with tariffs delaying further expansion.
  • R&R demand projected to normalize to 2–4% long-term growth after COVID-driven pull-forward and current deferral; recovery catalysts include consumer confidence, tariff stability, and lower interest rates.
